Steak fries are large, thick potato wedges, filling enough to be a meal in itself. These roasted potato/french fry hybrids are easy to make at home but sometimes end up more floppy and soggy than desired. Sure, you can deep fry them for a foolproof method for crispy fries, but the thought of standing over hot, bubbling oil and cleaning a messy fryer — particularly the annoying task of dealing with the leftover oil — is enough to deter even the biggest steak fry fan. A cleaner, easier method for making legitimately crispy french fries at home is to bake them in the oven — just make sure to use cornstarch to get them nice and crunchy.
